You'll then continue walking through the streets of Venice, with your guide explaining the local history and traditions. At 3:00 pm, the one-hour water taxi ride will start from the Rialto Bridge area, taking you on a grand tour of Venice through the Grand Canal and the smaller canals. After that, you'll continue on foot through Venice, visiting the city's most important places with explanations from your tour guide. The tour will end in the afternoon at 5:00 pm at the same point where it started. Alternatively, if you're staying in the historic center of Venice, the tour guide will take you back to your hotel upon request.
